Scrappy String Quilt

Scrappy String Quilt Block

Are you one of those quilters who can't stand to throw away fabric--even those long narrow strings?! Do you save everything --various lengths of left-over backing, pieces trimmed from previous projects, wide swaths of selvage with those cute little sayings on them-- thinking that maybe you will find a use for them... someday? This is someday, and this project is custom made for you!

In this class, we will use foundation paper as a base for putting those random size scrap strips to good use! Go super scrappy or organize your scraps to create a color scheme of your choice.

Make as many string quilt blocks as you want and blast those scraps to create a string quilt! The string block finishes at 8" square. This quilt uses scraps as narrow as 1 inch up to 3 inches and everything in between!
